Hello,
I tried the following:
####### start code
a = N.random.rand(1000000)
myFile = file('test.bin', 'wb')
for i in range(100):
a.tofile(myFile)
myFile.close()
####### end code
And this gives roughly 50 MB/s on my office-machine but only 6.5 MB/s on
the machine that I was reporting about.
Both computers use Python 2.4.3 with enthought 1.0.0 and numpy 1.0.1
So I think I will go and check the harddisk-drivers. array.tofile does
not seem to be the problem and actually seems to be very fast. Any other
recommendations?
Thanks
Lars
